Description Bug 2006-08-07 07:32:46 UTC
After a varying amount of otherwise perfect game play,  the videocard suddenly
goes black, sometimes an image remains, sound sometimes continues, sometimes
not, sometimes magic sysrq works sometimes not, requires system reset in all
cases. Performance (for all games) is similar to a radeon 9000 (r200), which is
unexpectedly low.

Please update to CVS HEAD.

It seems fixed after turning "colortiling" "on" also fixed several other
hardlocks with other games. Not to mention this option boosted performance by
nearly 50% in quake3.
